Wu Zetian was very unhappy after hearing Feiyun's words. She is such a smart person, so she naturally understands Feiyun's intentions. She knew that Feiyun didn't want Furong to follow her tomorrow, which would make it more difficult for Feiyun to protect herself. Furong doesn't know martial arts, so once they encounter an enemy, Feiyun and the other three have to protect one more person.
Wu Zetian said quickly: "Fu Rong cannot go up the mountain tomorrow. I have just discussed it with Mrs. Guo and Fu Rong." Then she said to Guo Qingshan: "Brother Guo, I want Fu Rong to accompany me for a few days. Do you have any objection?"
Furong had already told Guo Qingshan about this just now, and said that her mother had agreed. Guo Qingshan also saw that Wu Zetian was not an ordinary person, and immediately said: "Furong can accompany the old lady, that is her destiny, how can I object. If Miss Li wants to go up the mountain to find a cave, I can let my son lead the way!"
Xiao Yan didn't really plan to find any cave, she just casually said that she wanted to find out Feiyun's plans for tomorrow. After listening to Wu Zetian's words, she suddenly had a new idea.
Xiao Yan smiled slightly and said: "Uncle Guo, Mrs. Li, I just heard Brother Lin talk about the cave. I was curious for a while and had no intention of going there. Since Mrs. Li wants Furong to accompany her, of course I have to listen to the words of my elders. I don't know Mrs. Li Is there anything you want Miss Furong to do? If necessary, I am willing to help!"
Xiao Yan's words aroused Wu Zetian's vigilance. Wu Zetian had always been suspicious and found it difficult to trust people. Besides, both Xiao Yan and Cai Cai carried swords with them, and they looked like men in the world, so Wu Zetian was naturally wary of them. Feiyun has helped her many times, but she can't completely trust Feiyun, let alone Xiao Yan, who she just met?
Xiao Yan took the initiative to show her kindness, but Wu Zetian thought that Xiao Yan was showing off her courtesy for nothing and must have some special intention. Wu Zetian was wary of Xiao Yan.
Wu Zetian said calmly: "It's nothing, I just like Fu Rong's liveliness and cuteness and let her talk to me. As for Miss Li's kindness, I accept it, but I don't dare to go to waste!"
Liangchen next to him was worried that Wu Zetian would tell her about leaving tomorrow, and was ready to interrupt Wu Zetian at any time. Unexpectedly, Wu Zetian didn't mention a word. From Wu Zetian's words, Liangchen also sensed Wu Zetian's distrust of Xiao Yan. Liangchen breathed a sigh of relief, but also secretly admired Wu Zetian's shrewdness.
Wu Zetian declined Xiao Yan's kindness, which immediately made Xiao Yan wake up. Xiao Yan knew that she had acted too hastily and aroused Wu Zetian's suspicion. She secretly warned herself not to advance rashly, lest she arouse more suspicion from Wu Zetian.
Xiao Yan smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, even if the junior didn't say anything. In this case, the junior will not affect the old lady." After saying that, she ignored Wu Zetian and turned to look at the playing lotus and the beautiful scenery.
Soon, Chen Cunhua told everyone that the food was ready and invited everyone to eat in the main hall. Xiao Yan and Caihong hurriedly said hello to Chen Cunhua. Chen Cunhua was overjoyed and warmly greeted them into the house.
After dinner, everyone came to the courtyard. Furong took Meijing with her to practice boxing. Feiyun and Guo Qingshan chatted, and the good times were by Wu Zetian's side. Xiao Yan and Caihong were whispering to the side, and Chen Cunhua took her two sons to the backyard.
After nearly two hours, Guo Qingshan saw that it was almost midnight and asked Chen Cunhua to arrange for everyone to rest. Everyone has their own things to do tomorrow and cannot sleep too late. Naturally, everyone had no objections and took a rest one after another under Chen Cunhua's arrangement.
Early the next morning, after Feiyun got up, he came to the courtyard. He had just practiced boxing for a while when he heard Meimei shouting urgently in front of the door: "Brother, come here quickly!"
Feiyun saw that Meimei was nervous and panicked, so she hurried over and asked, "Third sister, what happened?" Meimei pointed to the room in a panic and stammered: "Ms. Li... something happened... Got it!"
Feiyun was shocked and rushed in and came to Wu Zetian's bedside. Wu Zetian was seen lying on the bed, motionless, moaning feebly. Her face was frighteningly pale, and she looked painful.
Feiyun asked anxiously: "Mrs. Li, what's wrong with you?" Liangchen, who had just checked Wu Zetian's pulse, stood up and said: "Brother, stop screaming. She can no longer speak, has lost consciousness, and cannot move yet. , the whole body is paralyzed!"
Feiyun asked in horror: "Second sister, did you find out anything? What happened to her?" Just as Liangchen was about to speak, Furong and Chen Cunhua came in.
Liangchen had no choice but to say to Chen Cunhua: "Auntie, Furong, the old lady occasionally feels cold, please don't come close. But don't worry, we will cure her. You can leave first, my elder brother and I need to discuss the medication."
Chen Cunhua was relieved when Liangchen said she could treat illnesses. She nodded in agreement and pulled Fleur out. Liangchen hurriedly told Meimei not to let anyone in again. Meimei agreed and stood at the door.
Liangchen then said to Feiyun: "Brother, Mrs. Li was poisoned by a strange poison. But I can't find out what the poison is. It's a poison I've never encountered before!"
Feiyun was shocked. Among the three, Liangchen was proficient in medical skills and familiar with various pharmacological effects. If she doesn't know what the poison is, it's even less likely that Feiyun and Mei Mei will know.
Seeing that Feiyun was silent and silent, Liangchen quickly comforted him and said, "Brother, don't worry too much. Although I don't know what kind of poison she was poisoned, I can be sure that her life is not in danger for the time being!"
Feiyun finally came back to his senses and murmured: "But we don't even know what the poison is, how can we detoxify her?"
Liangchen sighed and said: "Brother, there is no other way now. We can only go to the mountain to find Mrs. Wang and ask her for the antidote!"
Feiyun asked in shock: "Second sister, do you suspect that Mrs. Wang really poisoned you?"
Liangchen said angrily: "Brother, it's not a suspicion, it's a certainty. It's my fault that I couldn't find out yesterday, and I didn't believe her words. I didn't expect that she was really poisoned."
Feiyun immediately said: "Since it is confirmed that Mrs. Wang gave the poison, I will immediately go up the mountain and ask her for the antidote! You two stay here and protect Mrs. Li!"
Meimei hurriedly said: "Brother, I'll go with you!" Feiyun's face darkened and he said: "No. You two take turns to keep an eye on Mrs. Li. I'm going to ask for medicine, not to grab it! The second sister is alone, I’m not at ease. There’s no need to say more about this, I’ll set off right away!”
Seeing that Feiyun's face was ashen, Meijing was so frightened that she quickly shut up and stopped talking. She knew the stakes were high and she didn't dare to lose her temper.
Just as Feiyun was about to leave the room, Liangchen said quickly: "Brother, don't be tough on that Mrs. Wang. As long as her demands are not excessive, I can only agree to them all now!"
Feiyun nodded, turned around and left the room. He was worried that Mrs. Wang had left the cave, so he picked up Qinggong and ran away.
An hour later, Feiyun arrived near the cave. He was about to rush over when he heard a girl yelling at the entrance of the cave.
Feiyun was greatly surprised. The people in the cave yesterday did not dare to express their anger in front of Mrs. Wang, let alone shout like this. What's more, there are only two maids in the cave. I have been in the mountain for some time, and I have never heard those two maids speak loudly. It seems that an outsider came to the cave and a dispute broke out between the two parties.
Feiyun didn't dare to approach rashly and quickly stopped. He looked around. Fortunately, he had been here the day before yesterday and was very familiar with the environment. He climbed the hillside and quietly approached the cave entrance.
Feiyun hid in a pile of grass, pulled out the weeds in front of him, and took a closer look. He couldn't help but be surprised. In the open space in front of the cave, Mrs. Wang, Wang Hai and a group of others were waiting in formation. Opposite them were more than ten burly men, led by Xu Zhitang, Luo Sitang and Xing'er, who was dressed in red.
Feiyun was very surprised, why did Xu Zhitang appear here? If the two sides fight, Mrs. Wang and the others will definitely not be their opponents. If that's the case, it seems that he has to come forward to help Mrs. Wang.
Although Feiyun did not want to have a grudge with Xu Zhitang, if something happened to Mrs. Wang, Wu Zetian's life would be in danger. Feiyun could only stare at the crowd in the open space, ready to take action at any time. m
It turns out that Xu Zhitang and Feiyun were forced to evacuate after their duel failed that day. Dongfang Xing'er was very angry and kept complaining about Xu Zhitang and did not order the siege.
Myolie thinks that with their strength, they can kill Wu Zetian. Even if some brothers sacrifice their lives for this, it is still worth it!
Xu Zhitang knew that Xing'er was right, and quickly explained: "Little junior sister, if we fight to the death, of course we can kill Wu Zetian. But with the Three Heroes of Xiaoxiang here, our brothers will also suffer a lot of casualties. I don't want to do it for To take Wu Zetian's life is to risk the lives of many brothers."
Xing'er said: "Elder brother, you are just too soft-hearted. I don't want my brothers to die, but if such a good opportunity is missed, it will be difficult to encounter in the future. Maybe if I assassinate this vicious woman in the future, more brothers will die!" "
Xu Zhitang replied without hesitation: "If that's the case, I can only give up the assassination plan and find a way later!" Those strong men disagreed with Xu Zhitang's statement, saying that even if they died, they would fight Wu Zetian to the death. .
These people are all survivors of Yangzhou back then, as well as some descendants of those who died in the war. They all had relatives who died in Yangzhou, and they hated Wu Zetian deeply, so they were naturally willing to fight to the death against Wu Zetian. Regarding Xu Zhitang's behavior today, everyone, like Xing'er, strongly disagreed.
However, due to their status as subordinates, these people were unable to publicly accuse Xu Zhitang like Myolie did. They could only express their determination that they would rather be in ruins than in ruins, so as to force out Xu Zhitang's fighting spirit.
Seeing this, Luo Sitang quickly comforted everyone, saying that he and Xu Zhitang had already prepared several plans to assassinate Wu Zetian. Xu Zhitang just wanted to successfully kill Wu Zetian at the least cost. Now is not the time to fight to the death, so please be patient.
When everyone heard that Xu Zhitang and Luo Sitang had subsequent assassination plans, they calmed down and stopped making noise. But they asked Xu Zhitang to take action immediately to prevent Wu Zetian from running away!
